The Best Day of Our Lives
We honestly can’t say enough amazing things about the Clayton Ballsbridge and the Thomas prior hall for our wedding. The whole way through the process of organising the wedding Danielle was incredible to deal with, responding to every query we had immediately and always being so friendly, professional and helpful. Danielle’s amazing work made the wedding planning so easy and stress free for us. On the day of the wedding everything from the set up of the ceremony, cocktail hour to dinner and then the party after was perfectly set up and allowed us and our guests to have the best time. All our guests raved about how good the food (both canapes and dinner were) and so many people mentioned how helpful and kind the staff were. Everything we could think of and many things we didn’t even know about were handled on the day seamlessly and helped us have the best day we could ever have hoped for. We would 100% recommend having your wedding at the Clayton Ballsbridge , from the venue to all the staff they were all incredible start to finish!

We Couldn't of asked for more
The team were superb. Given that the time frame was very short they delivered on every level. Both yourself and Fernando, were hospitable and professional throughout, and really gave us a special day. The food was excellent, and we couldn’t have asked for more. More than anything it was the generous nature of your personalities that shone through, and I will always remember it
